Bigg Boss OTT 2 came to a thrilling end, and the expectation for Bigg Boss 17 has sparked a wave of enthusiasm. There have already been numerous talks concerning the celebrity cast and the overarching concept for the upcoming season. Our screens will be graced with the new season of Bigg Boss on October 20, according to an exclusive update.
The names of possible celebrity candidates have started to appear in the media with the formal announcement of the season’s launch. The dynamic combination of Kanwar Dhillon and Alice Kaushik, Samarth Jurel from the renowned show “Maitree,” and celebrities like Mallika Singh and Sumedh Mudgalkar are among those said to be in talks for participation.
According to recent sources, Bigg Boss 17 producers are breaking all previous records for originality and hinting at a potentially interesting season-long theme: “singles vs. couples.” The show’s anticipation is increased by this unique theme idea, which assures viewers of a novel and engrossing experience in the following instalment.
Why did Bigg Boss 17 got postponed?
Now that the Bigg Boss 17 launch has been rescheduled, we know the REAL reason for the decision. According to a recent article in Bollywood Life, the show’s producers preferred the launch date of October 20 due to the impending ICC Cricket World Cup 2023. Given the fervent cricket fandom in India, the cricket spectacular, which is set to begin in the first week of October, provides stiff competition for TRP ratings.
The battle for viewers during major athletic events is one of the prominent difficulties faced by television programmes, particularly reality series like Bigg Boss and Khatron Ke Khiladi. The attention of a sizable percentage of the audience is commanded by cricket, which is frequently referred to as a religion in India. Therefore, the producers of Bigg Boss 17 have decided to change the launch date in order to minimise a potential loss in TRPs.
Now let’s wait for a formal affirmation. Fans have been excitedly awaiting Bigg Boss 17, which was scheduled to premiere on September 30 and follows Bigg Boss OTT 2. However, just yesterday, online sources stated that the contentious reality show’s premiere date had been moved to October 20.
